San Francisco private tours via luxury Tesla

For adults who are excited to make the most of their day and really get to know the city, we recommend the Best of San Francisco Private Tour (6hrs, which includes time for either a lovely waterfront lunch or a deeper dive into our neighborhoods).  If you’re short on time, our half-day Highlights of San Francisco Private Tour is our “express” offering.

Our Wine Country private tours are perfect for adult couples and groups of friends curious to learn about viticulture, or looking for a quick escape!  We also offer a family friendly wine-country day, customized upon request.

If you’re someone who’s always been fascinated by high-tech and modern California lifestyle, or you have children looking at colleges, our Silicon Valley Private Tours may surprise you!

If time spent in nature is more your speed, you’ll enjoy breathing the fresh Pacific air and strolling the Redwood forest with our trained naturalist guides in Muir Woods.  Muir Woods Private Tours journey across the Golden Gate Bridge and include time for a waterfront lunch in charming Sausalito.

The Tesla Model X SUV seats up to 5 guests, we recommend up to 4 adults, or 3 adults and 2 children. The third row is “European style” and most comfortable for 2 children or 1 adult. We’ve had 7’ tall NBA stars in our second row Captains chairs, so most humans fit comfortably!

The Tesla Model S sport sedan seats up to 4 guests. Three adults are seated very comfortably, with a rear middle seat available for a child or more petite person.

Spark Experiences are available for larger groups upon request.  Our Teslas together are able to accommodate up to a maximum of 9 persons (depending on size). Beyond that, we work with top-notch transportation partners that provide anything from large SUVs to Sprinters and full-size motor coaches.  Price upon request.

For families with kids and teens we recommend the 4hr Highlights of San Francisco Private Tour, as well as the Muir Woods, Golden Gate and Sausalito Private Tour (outdoors and active!).  These are especially engaging and a just long enough for the attention span of our younger guests!

If you have family members interested in high-tech or who are looking at colleges, our Silicon Valley Private Tour is also great for groups with older children.

We also are one of the VERY few operators who offer a customized family-friendly Wine Country private tour.

We welcome children 5yrs and up as long as they can safely sit in an adult car seat.  We frequently tour with families of all shapes and sizes, though we do not provide or allow boosters, car seats, or strollers in our Tesla vehicles.

Rest assured, ALL our guides are hand-selected and trained to be not only knowledgeable and interesting, but also kind, fun and easy to talk to. 

Our founder and lead guide Heather has more than 10 years in luxury hospitality, teaching experience, and many dozen glowing 5-star reviews! 

In fact, our team of world-class local guides come to us with a wealth of professional experience with companies such as Tauck World Discoveries, Walt Disney Adventures, Insight Gold, Destination America and Abercrombie & Kent… just to name a few!

All of our Spark Experiences are carefully crafted to be top-caliber experiences that have been enjoyed by thousands of guests.  Each private tour is led by a professional guide, who is sensitive to your interests and ability.

If you would like to make substantial changes to one of our existing tours, or request a fully bespoke experience, we can customize an itinerary just for you!  Please contact us if you’d like to discuss options for curating your perfect day.

To maximize your time and access to the best sites, the optimal start time for most tours is 9am.  Other start times may be available upon special request.

Part of your Spark Experience is luxury roundtrip transportation to and from centrally located hotels within the City of San Francisco, including Downtown, SOMA, Nob Hill and Fisherman’s wharf!

We highly recommend starting all tours from your place of lodging.  We offer upgraded pickup from SFO area hotels, upon special request.  Please note that we cannot store unattended luggage or personal items or in the vehicle at any time.

Our tours are casual, so slacks, jeans and leisurewear are all perfectly appropriate.  The most important wardrobe items to pack are wind-resistant warm outer layers (year round!) and comfortable footwear for walking.

Overall, our weather is very mild and temperate, with averages in the low 60s much of the year.  We definitely recommend dressing in multiple light layers, especially for our cool ocean breezes and famous fog near the coast.

For Muir Woods private tours we recommend wearing warmer layers and athletic shoes that are OK to get a little dirty (some trails are earthen).

Its not uncommon for visitors to dress up just a little extra for Napa Valley wine tasting.  Some private Napa wine tours may include jeep rides and vineyard walks, in which case you may wish to wear more sensible flat soled shoes and avoid wearing crisp what that might get soiled or dusty out in the vineyard!

Please feel free to ask any questions regarding attire.

Our goal is for you to have a memorable experience with your loved ones – in a way that’s fun, enriching, and completely stress-free. We’re here to take care of you every step of the way, whether you’re after a leisurely and relaxed itinerary or a nimble pace to check off everything on your bucket list.  For more information about what makes us the best San Francisco private tour operator, learn more here.
